Abstract
The authors report a case of Vogt-Koyonagi-Harada syndrome associated with intracranial meningioma. The authors discuss the HLA-DR4 gene as a common and causative factor in both conditions. This case report draws attention to the possibility of a causative association between intracranial meningioma and Vogt-Koyonagi-Harada syndrome, a rare but potentially blinding condition if not detected and treated early.Entities:
